Course Info
Course Summary
One of the current buzzwords in business is HR Transformation, but if you do not understand the concept, it is hard to deliver this within your organisation. The idea is to ensure that you are driving business and getting results while improving the functionality of HR. It also has to look at the bigger picture and understand the links between corporate goals, external and internal customer satisfaction and how the business achieves productivity and quality. As HR professionals, delegates need to be able to work at a strategic level within the company to add value and become partners.
You need to develop knowledge and skills to ensure that your contribution has transitioned from a service provider to a more valuable strategic partner.
